Encounters with Martingales in Stochastic Control
The martingale approach to stochastic control is very natural and avoids some major mathematical difficulties that arise when Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman... -
An Incentive Algorithm for a Closed Stochastic Network: Data and Mean-Field Analysis
The paper deals with a load-balancing algorithm for a closed stochastic network with two zones with different demands. The algorithm is motivated by...

Linear Wave Solutions of a Stochastic Shallow Water Model
In this paper, we investigate the wave solutions of a stochastic rotating shallow water model. This approximate model provides an interesting simple... -
Stochastic resonance in stochastic PDEs
We consider stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) on the one-dimensional torus, driven by space-time white noise, and with a...

Lp-Estimate for Linear Forward-Backward Stochastic Differential Equations
This paper is concerned with coupled linear forward-backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs, for short). When the homogeneous coefficients...

Optimal execution with stochastic delay
We show how traders use marketable limit orders (MLOs) to liquidate a position over a trading window when there is latency in the marketplace. MLOs...

Stochastic Control
Stochastic optimal control problems can in principle be solved by stochastic dynamic programming. We pay special attention to the LQG problem where... -
